So if in fact I wanted to make sure this was a number, I should have done something like either try and convert it to a number, which of course failed here, or put in a check to say where it is.

因此实际上如果我想确保,这是一个数字的话，我们的课程上的代码,在这里失败了，你或许应该在这里，放一个检查的东西。

And the engineering part of that is sort of the part that I talked about in one slide, when I talked about how do you convert this scientific advance into something that can be delivered all over the world.

First of all, two parameters. It's OK. All it says is, when I call this, I need to pass in two parameters for this to work. All right? Now, if I want to use that, I'm going to use a second piece of code here, called Barnyard. I'm going Barnyard to read in a couple of values, convert them into integers, and then I'm going to use solve to get a solution out.

注意我得到了什么,第一，两个参数,它的意思就是我调用这个函数，我得给它输入两个参数，明白了吗？,现在如果我要使用它我得用,这里的第二段代码，也叫,我将读入一组值，将它们转化为整型,然后我会用solve得到一个解决方案。
